Perhaps no animal outside the species homo sapiens has been maligned as frequently as equus ferus caballus, the horse, and sometimes even the target of invective, — horse's patoot!. But, literally, from time immemorial humankind has had a special relationship with the horse. Perhaps mag-nificent Paleolithic art from Lascaux re-veals origins the special relationship.
